Aquarium 75 gallons
Running for 2 months
Snowflake eel has been in for 6 weeks
12 - 13 inches long
He eats frozen shrimp every 2 - 3 days
testing numbers
Amm 0
Nitrites 1
Nitrates 15 - 20
PH 8.1
Temp 78 - 79.5
The snowflake eel is eating regular, but I have noticed that he is shaking his head a lot back and forth for 1 - 2 seconds at a time. (Attached is video of him doing it twice, it happens a lot)
History
I did have 4 fish die from a yet to be determined disease. I have ordered a DNA parasite test and bacterial test, and will have the results back at the end of the month. My best guess was/is flukes.
Fish in the aquarium now -- saddle puffer, foxface Lo
I have read that flukes can make fish shake there heads but not sure if it goes to eels as well. I have dosed PraziPro today to see if that helps at all.
Do you have any other suggestions or ideas of what it could be.
